  1. Yep, that qualifies. Happy Birthday 🎂
  2. Sounds like you got it. New synchro and anything else worn that comtacts it. Common problem.
  3. All the sanctions on Russian oil are doing more harm here than to Russia. Long as Russian oil is off the market, we get the reward of paying close to $4.00/ gallon for diesel.
  4. I had a '97 CH and a '97 CL. The CL had metal doors and the CH had fiberglass doors.
  5. They were an odd looking loader compared to most. A sand pit close to me used them well into the 2000s. I think they were the first articulated wheel loaders.
  6. Hey. A Scoopmobile. Odd you post that picture, I just saw another one earlier this week.
  7. Good Lord...... that looks liek something that should be on the side of a Wegman's truck.
  8. Pffttt...... nothing a few tampons in men's rooms can't straighten out.
  9. Parking brakes applied. If no air is going to release the parking brakes, none is going to the puff limiter. This allows the rack to move to the full fuel position. Even if it is only cranking, still allows as much fuel as possible if you have the throttle to the floor.
  10. Puff limiter does help for cold starts. When the parking brakes are applied, it allows the rack to go to fuel fuel so it can get as rich a mixture as possible for a cold start.
  11. Looks like it may have been part of a fire company. No matter, some people took good care of it over the years.
  12. I have a plate I'd give ya. Hole in the middle and notched to clear the oiler. They're only @11 inches until it starts come'n out 😁
  13. I never got good results with one of those DAs. Best one I have is an old one you can lock to spin round only. And lots of WD40
  14. One of these postd we're gonna see the Mov'n On KW in the background or the coupe from American Graffiti to match the '55
  15. Betty White made it close to a hundred too......just say'n
  16. I just sold those guys an engine, and they get my casings. I'll ask him about it.
  17. Maybe age got the better of it. Probably @35 years old.
  18. My guess is that truck's most likely in good shape. Those guys (on the door) take good care of their equipment. The original owner did too.
  19. That looks like it was a Wyoming Sand and Stone truck when it was brand new. I'd like to see it now. Either way, I've worked side by side with it at one time or another.
